Hiya
The real question is: how much bloat does the AddModule patch itself
create? If very little, then those who ship binaries will be very
grateful *and* those who roll their own are not affected.
If the AddModule functionality alone adds substantial overhead the general
community won't like it.
Personally, I like the ability to configure binary modules in and out on
the fly (or at least at startup time without a rebuild) and I think this
will boost the availability of commercial modules. Ideally one could link
binary modules in on-the-fly using a similar mechanism to Python's import
statement and the shared library support availablke on almost all systems.
